No, Not a new bow, just a new grip...sort of
« on: March 14, 2009, 04:13:00 PM »
got this new back in the fall, the grip didn't quiet fit me, so over the last few months I've been slowly sanding away at it. Last week I sent it back to Jim to have him stipple and refinish the grip. came out pretty sweet I think.

Definitely puts it aside from any other bow. Very sharp looking!   :thumbsup:

Very nice. Takes #@()$ to sand on your bow grip. What kind of bow is that?

Good work Larry......the grip is about the most important part of the bow for me.  This doesn't mean you're gonna stop "bow shopping" does it?

Tom, it's a Centaur...yeah, lol I hadn't had it more than four days before I started sanding on it. Although I will admit, I only did a little bit at a time over a 3 month period...you know, once you take it off, you can't put it back  :)  

I really like the way the stipple feels, just rough enough to keep you hand glued to the grip.

Guss, looking foward to the pics!

David, I'm closer to stopping shopping than I've ever been  :knothead:  

but there is still a couple more bows that I'd like to try before finale decisions are made  :biglaugh:    :biglaugh:

So...now that you have everybody's attention, when are you selling this one?

(Looks good now that Jim has fixed the grip you buggered.)   :D    :wavey:
Long, long afterward, in an oak I found the arrow, still unbroke;
And the song, from beginning to end, I found again in the heart of a friend.
